Pfsense 2.2 LAGG & VLAN LACP

R0M4iN74

Hi everyone,

I have a trouble similar to this post https://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?topic=86147.0

I have a Netgear XS712T where I create a Lagg of two ports. I tagg my VLAN 24 on this VLAN and select LACP.

On my firewall, I downloaded the FreeBSD 10.1 driver for my 10Gbit network card (Emulex). PFsense see it correctly. So I created a LAGG with two ports with LACP. I added a VLAN on this LAGG and assign a IP in my subnet. Everything seems to be okay.

But when I want to use this link I can't do anything. A simple ping says "host is down".

Do you have any idea of what's going on ?

Thank you.

I've done some research. It seems that my OCE.ko driver can be the reason of my trouble.

If I plug an other intel card 1GBe, everything is working fine. But if I do the same with my Emulex OCE11102 nothing is working anymore.

In order to install my 10Gbe extra card, I downloaded a freebsd 10.1 ISO. Get the oce.ko file in it and copied it into the pfsense at /boot/kernel/oce.ko. I added the line oce_load="YES" at the end of the file /boot/loader.conf and one reboot later, my card is correctly there.

But it seems that I can't handle any traffic with these ports. they are correctly view and configurable on pfsense gui interface.

Any idea on what's going on ?

Thanks you !
